Hello everyone. I'm new to game development and I'm using Construct 3 to help me get started in the world of game making. I'm working on a small platformer, and I was wondering how to change the Player's animation when the A or D key is pressed. I have a simple animation called Move for this, but I can't figure out how to do this in the event sheet. A little help would be lovely. Thank you.

You should start by studying the official templates included in Construct 3. You will learn a lot from them.

To change the animation when a key is pressed, add Keyboard object to the project and add this event:

Keyboard on key A pressed -> Sprite set animation "Move"
